Shared transcriptional profiles at the single cell level of atypical memory B cells suggest common drivers of expansion and function in malaria, HIV and autoimmune diseases [HIV scRNA-seq]

Project description:Human chronic infectious diseases, including malaria and HIV and autoimmune diseases, notably SLE, are accompanied by a striking expansion of a subpopulation of B cells termed atypical memory B cells (MBCs). We compared the single cell transcriptional profiles of B cells in malaria and HIV, characterizing and uncovering heterogeneity within each B cell subset. Remarkably, atypical MBC clusters in these two diseases showed significant similarities to each other as well as to atypical MBCs in autoimmune diseases, suggesting a common driver of their expansion and shared functions. Focusing on atypical MBCs in malaria we identified an IgD+IgMlo subpopulation that expanded in children upon the onset of febrile malaria, showed a distinct V gene usage characteristic of antigen-driven B cell populations and unexpectedly, had acquired high antigen-affinity thresholds for activation. We speculate that in malaria IgD+IgMlo atypical MBCs expand to limit responses to low-affinity self-antigens, a function that may be shared by atypical MBCs in other chronic infections and autoimmune diseases.

Shared transcriptional profiles at the single cell level of atypical memory B cells suggest common drivers of expansion and function in malaria, HIV and autoimmune diseases [Malaria VDJ+GEX scRNA-seq]

Project description:Human chronic infectious diseases have been shown to alter the composition and phenotype of the B cell compartment, which, in part, can attribute to failure to acquire protective immunity. However, the extent of such alterations is poorly understood. Here, using a combination of bulk and single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) of B cells in individuals living in malaria-endemic Africa, we characterized changes in naïve B cell, classical memory B cell (MBC) and atypical MBC subsets. Of particular interest were unswitched atypical MBCs that expanded in children upon the onset of febrile malaria. This subpopulation expressed IgD but only low levels of IgM (IgD+IgMlo), high levels of the atypical MBC markers, Tbet and CD11c, as well as the intrinsically autoreactive VH4-34. IgD+IgMlo atypical MBCs were distinguished functionally by their acquisition of high antigen-affinity thresholds for activation, suggesting the IgD+IgMlo atypical MBC expansion during febrile malaria may reduce responses to low affinity self-antigens during acute malaria

Malaria-associated atypical memory B cells exhibit markedly reduced B cell receptor signaling and effector function

Project description:Plasmodium falciparum malaria is a deadly infectious disease for which we have no licensed vaccine. Antibodies confer protection against malaria and individuals exposed to P. falciparum acquire protective antibodies, but only after years of repeated infections. We recently showed that malaria exposure is associated with a large expansion of a population of atypical memory B cells (MBCs) that phenotypically resemble B cell populations expanded in chronic viral infections, including HIV. At present the relationship of atypical MBCs to classical MBCs and their function are not known. We provide evidence that the expressed VH gene repertoires and somatic hypermutation rates of atypical and classical MBCs are indistinguishable, indicating the two populations are closely related developmentally. Atypical MBCs can be distinguished by their expression of multiple inhibitory receptors, including Fc receptor-like-5. B cell receptor (BCR) signaling is stunted in atypical MBCs, resulting in impaired Ca2+ mobilization, proliferation and cytokine production. Atypical MBCs do not spontaneously secrete antibodies and cannot be stimulated to differentiate into antibody-secreting cells in vitro. These results suggest that in individuals chronically exposed to malaria, atypical MBCs differentiate from classical MBCs and assume a phenotype refractory to BCR-mediated activation, potentially contributing to the inefficient acquisition of immunity to malaria. Comparison of human atypical B cell versus classical B cell versus naïve B cell.

Plasmodium-specific atypical memory B cells are short-lived activated B cells

Project description:Chronic infections such as HIV, tuberculosis and malaria in humans are associated with the appearance of atypical memory B cells in peripheral blood. It has been suggested that these B cells do not function normally as memory cells, and thus may be responsible for poor acquisition of immunity and maintenance of chronic infections. Studies on these cells in human infections are limited by the lack of accessibility to lymphoid organs, and relevant mouse models would be valuable to investigate their development, functional capacities, and role. To investigate Plasmodium-specific memory B-cell responses during malaria, we generated an immunoglobin heavy chain knock-in mouse with a B-cell receptor that recognizes the merozoite surface protein (MSP)-1 of the rodent malaria parasite, Plasmodium chabaudi. Using this mouse and a P. chabaudi infection initiated by infected mosquito bites we show that antigen-specific B cells with many characteristics of human atypical memory B cells are generated. These cells are immunoglobulin class-switched and express, among others, the cell surface molecules CD11c, CD11b, FCRL5, and some inhibitory receptors including PD1 and LAIR-1, as well as the transcription factor T-bet. Antigen-specific atypical memory B cells are detected side-by-side with classical memory B cells during chronic blood-stage infection. Whereas classical memory B cells persist after complete infection clearance, atypical memory B cells are short-lived and disappear from the spleen at the resolution of chronic infection. Short-lived Plasmodium-specific atypical B cells also appear transiently after immunization with a TLR7/8 ligand and MSP-1. Our data suggest that these atypical memory B cells are not a subset of memory B cells, but rather antigen-experienced activated cells, and part of a normal ongoing response. Their persistence over weeks in malaria and other infections may be a consequence of continued and chronic antigenic stimulation.
